CO₂ Compact Sensor
The new GroLab™ CO₂ Compact Sensor is designed to automatically and reliably monitor the most critical environmental variables for a healthy and productive grow.
This 4-in-1 sensor accurately measures CO₂ levels, temperature, relative humidity, and light intensity. It uses NDIR technology for CO₂, ensuring fast and precise readings up to 5000 ppm, which is crucial for optimizing CO₂ enrichment systems and preventing waste.
With a compact design, the sensor is easy to install and integrates seamlessly with the GroLab™ platform. This allows for automatic data processing, alerts, and automated actions for greater precision and less intervention.
Compatible with the GroLab™ PowerBot and third-party systems, it communicates via the RS-485 protocol. Its installation is intuitive and can be adapted to monitor CO₂ levels in real-time and automatically activate systems like solenoid valves. The integrated light sensor also lets you pause enrichment at night.
TANKBOT THE TANK MANAGER AND NUTRIENTS DOSING CONTROLLER
TankBot is a precise grow controller that allows a complete water tank control, nutrients dosing, pH regulation and full crop security.
Thanks to the capability of handling actuators of 12v, it is possible to create impressive irrigation systems and a precise nutrients solution automation.
This controller supports a wide variety of peripherals like solenoid valves, peristaltic pumps, water pumps, relays and power contactors, giving you a huge amount of automation solutions.
TankBot does not only monitor the pH, EC and water temperature but also supports 4 switch sensors of your choice like water level sensors or motion/smoke detectors.
Free yourself from the boring tank management tasks and increase your growing environment protection with TankBot!
CTRLBOT THE CONTROL EXPANDER
The CtrlBot is an expansion module that enhances the capabilities of the GroLab™ system, enabling independent control of up to 10 actuators at 12/24VDC and significantly increasing automation possibilities in horticultural environments.
Designed to directly manage irrigation zones, lighting systems or other electrical devices, CtrlBot offers personalised control of distinct electrical lines, easily adapting to the specific needs of each project. Its compatibility with relays and power contactors simplifies the control of electrical panels, even in medium or large installations.
CtrlBot stands out for its flexibility by integrating a wide range of peripherals, from solenoid valves and water pumps to high-power ventilation and lighting systems, making automated management more efficient and comprehensive.
SoilBot The Versatile Substrate Analyzer
SoilBot is designed for the rigorous growers who wants to completely monitor the substrate where their plants grow.
This controller has the capability to measure the substrate moisture and temperature regardless of whether it is soil, rock wool, coconut or a recurrent dipping of roots in water.
Combined with PowerBot or TankBot allows a complete substrate automation based on the water and temperature needs of your plants, improving the water-use and growth efficiency.
SoilBot also incorporates safety sensors for flood detection!
UserBot The Integration Maestro
The UserBot is an Arduino shield that lets you create a fully customized GroLab™ module. Designed for users with basic programming and electronics knowledge, it offers a simple way to integrate third-party sensors and devices into the GroLab™ ecosystem.
This solution stands out for its flexibility, creativity, and total control, allowing you to tailor the system to your specific grow needs. It connects directly to the Arduino, works as a plug-and-play solution, and supports a wide range of components—from portable sensors for measuring pH, temperature, and CO₂ to control devices like relays or motors.
With full support for radio frequency communication and various connections, the UserBot turns any Arduino project into a fully integrated GroLab™ module, opening the door to countless automation and monitoring possibilities.
GROLAB™ SOFTWARE THE INTUITIVE CONTROL INTERFACE
One of the GroLab™ goals is to provide the ability to control any kind of agricultural growing system, in a forward thinking, easy and simple way.
GroLab™ Software is full of simple illustrations that will guide you on the introduction to the grow automation. A simple click and go function, removing all the complicated operations usually associated with this kind of product.
Track your grow(s) progress through IP cameras and a variant of data inputs, featuring graphs, historical data, and trends. All sensors/peripherals data can easily be exported to a friendly file for an external deep analysis or periodically uploaded to a cloud server.
Thanks to the remote control feature, this easy-to-use software allows you to control and monitor your grow(s) from anywhere at anytime.
GroLab™ Software makes it possible to use industry-level technology in a simple and easy way, allowing every grower to automate their home grow rooms.
